We just put a date close to when we planned on going on our trip, along with a guestimate of the time out of the country (2 weeks). But when it was approved and we recieved the notice we noticed it says nothing of the dates or length of time allowed to stay out of the country. Except for the date the parole paperwork expires, which is one year from the date it was issued. So in the end, the dates we put on the request had no relevance on what is actually on the AP approval notice.

Hope that helps

No. Write unknown and unknown. That's what I did. Don't "pick a date" like some people do, it's lying on a form and who wants to risk that.

Though my best guess was not a "lie", I like the idea of writing "unknown" a bit more.

Sorry I wasn't referring to you There was a post a while back where a poster suggested "just picking a date" which is why I asked that the example form be changed as it implied a date HAS to be written when it doesn't... I don't think the forms been changed though last I checked.. oh well
